Host-Induced Gene Silencing: Approaches in Plant Disease Management

, 2023
Crops exposed to the damage of various biotic and abiotic sources result in reduced yields and cause economic losses. There are prominent strategies such as breeding for improved resistance, the application of pesticides, and cultural practices that are ...

Internuclear gene silencing in Phytophthora infestans is established through chromatin remodelling [PDF]

, 2008
In the plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans, nuclear integration of inf1 transgenic DNA sequences results in internuclear gene silencing of inf1. Although silencing is regulated at the transcriptional level, it also affects transcription from other ...

Host-induced gene silencing compromises Verticillium wilt in tomato and Arabidopsis : HIGS against Verticillium wilt

, 2018
Verticillium wilt, caused by soil-borne fungi of the genus Verticillium, is an economically important disease that affects a wide range of host plants. Unfortunately, host resistance against Verticillium wilts is not available for many plant species, and

Double-Stranded RNAs Targeting Sphaerulina musiva Silence DCL but Not CYP51 In Vitro and Fail to Confer Resistance to Canker in Transgenic Poplar

PhytoFrontiers
Host-induced gene silencing (HIGS) is a common method for engineering plant protection against pathogens, although success requires double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) uptake mechanisms that may not be present in all fungi.

Pathogenomics and Management of Fusarium Diseases in Plants

Pathogens, 2020
There is an urgency to supplant the heavy reliance on chemical control of Fusarium diseases in different economically important, staple food crops due to development of resistance in the pathogen population, the high cost of production to the risk-averse

Cross-kingdom RNA interference-mediated silencing of

Oil Crop Science
Sclerotinia stem rot, caused by the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum , inflicts substantial economic losses on rapeseed production. The lack of resistant germplasm has rendered disease management heavily reliant on chemical fungicides, and ...
